Chapter 348: Seito Utterly Dominates the God of the Sky! A War at the Edge of the Solar System?
.....
"It looks like you've finally figured it out, but what good will that do you now?" Seito asked with a relaxed smile.
The stat boosts from the Spatial Dragon Katana were massive. Facing three God-Kings who did not even own a single piece of God-King tier gear made this battle an absolute walk in the park!
"Don't rush, though," Seito chuckled. "Once he is dead, it will be your turn."
His body instantly transformed into a beam of radiant light, hurtling across the void straight toward Calshius. From a distance, one could see a majestic, blinding streak of starlight carving its way through the beautiful canvas of the cosmos.
BOOM!
In a matter of seconds, Seito materialized right in front of Calshius.
He stood suspended in the void, looking down at the newly ascended God-King. Calshius looked incredibly ragged. Golden divine blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, though his physical body had not sustained any fatal structural damage yet.
Seito raised his Dragon Katana high, a terrifying surge of purple spatial energy swirling along the edge of the blade.
"Not good!" Calshius panicked, frantically lifting his grand halberd to block.
Ding!
CRACK—!
The heavy blade came down in a sweeping arc. Under Calshius's utterly horrified gaze, his divine weapon was sliced clean in two by the Dragon Katana.
This sight caused Calshius's mind to completely reel in shock! One had to remember that his weapon was a genuine, high-tier artifact! For a divine weapon to be shattered so casually was an unprecedented disaster throughout the entire history of the Domain of the Gods!
Forcing his thoughts back to the reality of the duel, Calshius swiftly kicked out, aiming a heavy strike at Seito's midsection. He needed to create distance immediately; otherwise, Seito would execute him right then and there!
However...!
His right leg passed straight through Seito's physical form. The attack failed to register a single shred of actual kinetic impact! Not only did he fail to damage Seito, but because he hit nothing but air, he couldn't even use the momentum to launch himself backward.
"Trying to run?" Seito smiled playfully. Running away now? It was a little too late for that!
"Damn you!" Calshius's avian eyes flashed with absolute ruthlessness as he fully detonated his divine energy pool!
BOOM!
He blasted a tunnel straight through the core of the dead star, escaping from the absolute opposite side of the planet back into the vacuum of space! Hovering in the void, Calshius looked through the newly blasted planetary shaft to track Seito's coordinates.
A blinding purple light suddenly burst from Seito's body.
In the next fraction of a second—
BOOM!
RUMBLE!!!
The dead star was completely blown apart from the inside by Seito's raw power, turning into millions of fragmented meteors that drifted aimlessly into space.
Seito took a slow step forward, strolling through the vacuum toward Calshius as if walking on air. "From the very moment the two of us were left alone in this sector, your chances of survival dropped to absolute zero. Just be a good boy and wait for death."
His tone was entirely flat and
conversational, but the absolute disdain dripping from his words drove Calshius into a homicidal rage.
Damn him! Damn him to hell! Calshius screamed internally, streams of brilliant sky-blue light erupting from his feathers.
"Authority of the Sky! Sky God Form!"
Whoosh—!
The blinding light caused Seito to instinctively narrow his eyes. At the same time, a wide grin spread across his face. It looked like the bird-man was finally going to pull out all the stops. He was quite curious to see what the Authority of the Sky actually looked like.
A few seconds later...
Hum—
The radiant pillars of light receded, revealing Calshius clad in a massive, heavy set of divine armor! The armor was a pristine blue-and-white configuration that sealed his entire body. Even the two pairs of giant wings on his back were fitted with thin, defensive plates of steel.
This was Calshius's ultimate form—an exclusive skill that used the power of his Authority to grant his baseline parameters a massive, absolute buff!
"Interesting," Seito muttered, stowing the scabbard back into his Kamui dimension while keeping a firm, single-handed grip on the hilt of his weapon. "Come on then! Let's keep going!"
The moment his words fell, Calshius rocketed forward. Seito, refusing to show even a shred of weakness, charged right back to meet him head-on!
BANG!
BOOM!!
The two colossal forces collided, the residual shockwaves instantly grinding all the surrounding planetary debris into microscopic dust.
This time, Seito did not rely on his spatial intangibility. Instead, he fully activated his spatial perception track, engaging his opponent in a brutal, unrestricted, fist-to-face brawl!
DING—!
BANG!!
The two supreme entities engaged in a frantic exchange of lethal blows. Every time Seito dodged or parried an incoming strike, he would immediately follow up by slamming the flat of his blade against Calshius's armor. Looking at the sheer intensity of the trade, it was clear that a winner would not be decided overnight.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the cosmos...
The Outer Rim of the Solar System.
BOOM!
"Hahaha!"
Amou let out a wild, booming laugh as she tore an early-stage God-rank deity into physical shreds with her bare hands.
"Incredible! This feels absolutely spectacular!" This feeling of treating gods like mere sheep at a slaughterhouse was an absolute rush!
Right beside her, Shiro and Maple had already entered their full mechanical armor states, unleashing an infinite barrage of hyper-compressed energy cannons into the mass of invading deities! The rest of the Fatui members were also systematically cycling through their ultimate skills to decimate the enemy ranks.
Outside the defensive line...
"Damn it! We cannot breach this God-King protective matrix at all! We're just sitting ducks out here waiting to be slaughtered!"
"Curse them! What on earth is wrong with these people?!"
"Are you an idiot? Did you miss the system log mentioning a 'God-King's Blessing'?"
"Alright, stop screaming at each other! Figure out a way to break past this barrier!"
The invading deities stared at the defensive line, their eyes burning with pure malice. They wanted nothing more than to rip Amou and the others to pieces.
Yet, scattered across the vacuum around them were the lifeless husks of dozens of their fellow gods. Dozens more had sustained catastrophic injuries—some were bleeding massive rivers of divine blood, others were missing limbs, and a few were already taking their final breaths. The battlefield was a scene of absolute carnage!
Everyone knew that as long as the God-King's Blessing remained active, they had a 0% mathematical chance of killing a single member of Seito's faction.
"All units, assemble on my coordinates!" a young-looking, peak God-rank powerhouse bellowed across the wider tactical channel.
"What is your plan?" a female peak God-rank deity asked, rapidly repositioning herself next to him. Seeing the vanguard gather, the remaining foreign gods frantically fell into formation around them.
"We need to consolidate our offensive output! If everyone releases their personal ultimate attack at the exact same coordinate point, we can forcefully shatter this God-King barrier through sheer energy overload!" the young god explained.
Right now, their disjointed, individual spells were completely failing to make a dent in the defensive matrix. After all, the sheer scaling of a God-King tier barrier was something their current metrics couldn't even comprehend. But if they managed to concentrate the absolute highest destructive output of every single surviving deity onto a single focal coordinate...
They might just blast a massive hole right through the shield! Once the barrier dropped, they could flood the sector and slaughter Amou and the rest of the squad!
Hearing the strategic proposal, the invading deities froze for a fraction of a second.
In the very next heartbeat, a wave of agreement rippled through the channel:
"I have no objections!"
"Count me in!"
"Focus-firing a single anchor point? That actually has a high probability of success!"
"Heh, finally... we can get inside and butcher those arrogant brats!"
"I'm going to make them pay for my missing arm!"
